Podium Place Cars and Coffee Meet, Saturday 15th March 2025
Podium Place (RG14 5SH) is a relatively new destination offering a one-of-a-kind experience, blending delicious specialty coffee with iconic classic, modern and supercars. Greenham Common (RG19 8BZ) was a USA airbase during World War 2 and the Cold War, and was also used by Richard Noble for testing Thrust 2 in preparation for his World Land Speed record. The control tower has been renovated in recent years to include a small museum and coffee shop. Milestones Museum (RG22 6PZ) records the history of Basingstoke and surrounding area through the ages with a collection of restored vintage vehicles, and also has a café and gift shop.
All three venues have websites where more information can be found.
We will meet at Podium Place between 9.30am and 10.00am and aim to depart at around 11.00am for the 20-minute drive to Greenham Common where we will stay for an hour or so and then make our way to the Milestones Museum.
Please email Fred (please click the link below) if you would like to join us and let us know your car details, reg number and how many people will be attending with you.
NB. Podium Place gets exceptionally busy from 9am onwards so we suggest you arrive early to ensure a good parking place.
